Butt met the PCB's anti-corruption officials and legal advisors yesterday and requested them to allow him to resume playing first class cricket from September 2.
"Salman Butt has requested a review of the action plan and is keen to get clearance to at least play first class cricket," said a board official.
The Pakistan Cricket Board on Wednesday had announced a comprehensive action plan for Butt, Muhammad Asif and Muhammad Aamir to reintegrate them back into mainstream cricket.
But the plan rules them out of playing first class cricket until February 2016 as they attend anti-corruption programs, deliver anti-corruption lectures in different regions, have counselling sessions, train and meet fitness standards at the national cricket academy and mend fences with the members of the national team.
The trio's five-year bans for spot fixing expire on September 1 midnight and the ICC said they can return to national and international cricket after that date.
But Pakistan's former Test captain Ramiz Raja has advised the PCB to rule out any chances of the trio returning to the national team.
"The PCB can give them permission to play some domestic cricket and perhaps even assist them financially but they must not be allowed to represent Pakistan again," Raja said in Lahore.
The former skipper made it clear that the trio by indulging in spot fixing in England on the 2010 tour had brought a bad name to Pakistan cricket and tarnished its image and their crime was unforgivable.
"It would be unfair to have eight players in a team who are clean and want to win and three players about whom they will always be doubts that they don't want to win," he said.
